Tasting Notes: One of the great wines of Gigondas, this is already a very stylish wine with lovely, concentrated yet elegant fruit characters and well-integrated oak. A real pleasure.
All wines from this estate | Drinking Dates: 2024 to 2036 | Cépagement: 55% Grenache, 25% Mourvèdre, 20% Syrah | Soil: Clay and rock, below the great Jurassic calcareous ridge of the Dentelles de Montmirail on small terraces | Upbringing: Hand-picked, severe selection, crushing, destalking, cold pre-fermentation and separate fermentation for each variety for 21 days with pigeage and temperature control. Aged in 100% oak casks, around 40% new. | ABV: 14% | Critic Reviews: 'Vivid ruby. A highly expressive and exotically perfumed bouquet evokes ripe red fruit, potpourri
and botanical herbs; a Moroccan spice nuance builds in the glass. It stains the palate with intense,
spice-laced raspberry, cherry and lavender pastille flavors that steadily deepen with air. Delivers a
suave blend of power and finesse and finishes impressively long and juicy, with resonating florality.
Fine-grained tannins add framework and grip.' 94/100 (Josh Raynolds, Vinous)
'A sweet and fragrant nose with raspberry pip and a note of coconut oaky character. A rounded generous mouthfeel with seductive and complete tannins. Good freshness and a slight chalky character. Needs time to come together but has good weight and power as well as elegance.' 16.5+/20 (jancisrobinson.com)
